Writing Dates in British English
For British English, day followed by month
followed by year, the 13th day of the month April, year 2014,
might be written in full (in order of complexity):
13 April
13 April 2014
13th April 2014
the 13th of April 2014
the 13th of April, 2014,
These are all possible, and a matter of choice.
The more complicated the style of date, the more formal it is.

These are all possible, and a matter of choice.
The more complicated the style of date, the more formal it is.
Слайд 3In the later examples, the and of are optional, but if
you do use them you must add both the and of; it would be incorrect to say only 13th or April or the 13th April.
In British English, commas are not necessary (although can be used to separate month an year, as a matter of style).
If you wish to add the name of the day, it should come before the date, and should either be separated by a comma or joined by the and of.
Sunday, 13 April 2014
Sunday the 13th of April, 2014

Writing Dates in British English
Слайд 4In American English, the month comes before the day, which means
you cannot use of and rarely use ordinal numbers (adding st, nd, rd, th).
Commas should also be used to separate the day and year, and again the name of the day should come at the beginning. The date should therefore be written:
April 13
April 13, 2014
Sunday, April 13, 2014
April the 13th or April 13th are not incorrect, but are much less common now.

Numerical date formats
In both British and American English, the date can
be written in abbreviated forms:
as a group of numbers (separated by hyphens, slashes or periods)
with the first few letters of the month. The date should be in day – month – year or month – day – year format depending on British or American use.

Слайд 7Which style to choose?
Choosing which style you write the date in
depends on:
how formal you wish the document to be
how much space you have
However, there are only two things that are really important, whichever style you choose:
Write the date in the correct format for that style
Be consistent
Do not use different styles within the same document, unless you have a good reason to.
